At the beginning of each Dept of State Lands Board (DSL) meeting there is time for attendees to voice concerns that are within the scope of the DSL, including the proposed Pacific Connector fracked gas Pipeline and Jordan Cove fracked gas Export Terminal. Join the statewide NO LNG (fracked gas) COALITION in voicing your concerns about this project which would benefit a Canadian company at the expense of Oregonians!

Transportation to the DSL meeting will leave from First United Methodist Church/1376 Olive in Eugene at 8:30am. Stay tuned for further details.

The next State Land Board Meeting in Salem is April 10th and provides an opportunity for Oregonians who oppose fracked gas to share their concerns with Governor Brown directly. At the beginning of each meeting, the State Land Board (Governor Brown, Secretary Dennis Richardson and Treasurer Tobias Reed) hear oral comments from the public on issues related to their responsibilities. While the State Land Board has thus far declined to put the Jordan Cove project on their official agenda, we are making it impossible for them to ignore out concerns by showing up to offer oral comment about why we oppose the project.

This workshop will cover how to write strategic and convincing public comments. We will explore the elements of effective comment writing, important talking points regarding the Jordan Cove Project, and specific asks for Governor Brown and the State Land Board. After discussion, we will write our comments together and, if time allows, practice delivering them!

If you are not able to attend this meeting but would like to send messages to the SLB members, here is the online contact info:Gov. Kate Brownhttp://www.oregon.gov/gov/Pages/share-your-opinion.aspxSecretary of State Dennis Richardsonoregon.sos@oregon.govTreasurer Tobias Readoregon.treasurer@state.or.us

Join us for a community forum about how to engage in upcoming state permitting processes about Jordan Cove LNG and the Pacific Connector Pipeline.

Although the pipeline was denied by FERC in 2016, the pipeline company has reapplied under the Trump administration.The project will need both federal and state permits to move forward and public participation will be key in permit denials. Join us to learn more about how to write substantive comments for upcoming permitting decisions from the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality and Department of State Lands that ensure we protect our public lands, water quality, wildlife and wetlands.

Join us in the Community Room for a screening of Sacred Water: Standing Rock Part I! In this film from the Viceland ‘Rise’ Series, the people of the Standing Rock Indian Reservation of North and South Dakota fight to stop a pipeline from being built on their ancestral homeland. After the screening, we will process the heavy truths delivered in this film and discuss ways we can take tangible action. There will be snacks!

Registration required with a $5-10 sliding scale donation. No one will be turned away for lack of funds, but please register so we can have an accurate estimate of attendees.

Join the No LNG Exports Coalition for a day action at the Capitol on Thursday, January 11th to ask Governor Brown to stand up for the climate by denying the Pacific Connector fracked gas Pipeline and Jordan Cove LNG Export Terminal!

On this day Oil Change International and the No LNG Exports Coalition will be releasing a groundbreaking study on the lifecycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions of the pipeline and export facility.

The Pacific Connector Pipeline is a proposed 229-mile pipeline that would take fracked gas sourced from the Rocky mountains from Malin to Coos Bay, where it would be liquefied and exported from a giant new facility called the Jordan Cove LNG Export terminal. This project would become the largest source of climate pollution in Oregon and would undermine action to meet goals to protect our climate and transition to renewable energy. The Governor and her State Agencies have the authority to deny permits and stop this project. We need Governor Kate Brown to stand up for the climate and stop this project for good.

Every second Tuesday of the month, Rogue Climate and the No LNG Exports Coalition will be hosting a "No Pacific Connector Pipeline" Volunteer night at the Rogue Action Center. Stop by any time between 4 and 8pm to volunteer!

Join us for volunteer nights on Tuesday, December 12th, January 9th, February 14th, March 13th, April 10th, May 6th, and June 12th to help stop the pipeline.

Jessica Reznicek and Ruby Montoya Speak:How and Why Two Women Went from Protesting to Sabotage to Stop the Dakota Access Pipeline

All events will be collecting donations for Jessica and Ruby.

Jessica and Ruby need your support to spread the word!

Please SHARE, invite friends to this and other events, & click Interested wherever you are ♥

They think they will likely be indicted and in jail awaiting trial soon. So these events are necessarily being organized on short notice. We need every single person to help get the word out. If you are part of an organization, please consider emailing your list. Please share on facebook and twitter. Thanks very much ♥

Background:In the fall of 2016, while the epic battle over Indigenous Rights and fossil fuel infrastructure was being waged in Standing Rock, ND against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL), Catholic Workers Ruby Montoya and Jessica Reznicek sabotaged DAPL infrastructure over and over during its construction near their home in Iowa, successfully delaying the destructive oil project for many weeks.

Recently, they revealed what they had done to the world, despite never being caught in the act. Now they’re traveling the West Coast, speaking publicly about their actions, why they decided to do what they did, and why they’ve publicly taken responsibility for it.

Come join Ruby and Jessica to learn about and discuss their decisions and action to do everything they could to stop the Dakota Access Pipeline.

These events are for everyone. Whether you agree with Jessica and Ruby's actions completely or not. Everyone who comes with respect and is genuinely interested in a productive dialogue is welcome.

The Global Climate Crisis is forcing people who never imagined or wanted to do anything like Jessica’s and Ruby’s actions to question and re-evaluate what they’re willing to do to confront it. And ask ourselves whether we are willing to support actions like these after they occur - even though some of us would never want to or be able to engage in actions like these ourselves.

With forests on fire, seas rising, super storms ripping apart the coastlines and so many of the most vulnerable people and wild things being hurt by climate change wemust rely on each other to stop this destruction

Our hope lies in the fact that we are capable of so much more than we can even imagine. Jessica and Ruby are just one example of this.

We invite you to an evening where we can all be among people who care as much as we do and share from our hearts.

On Thursday, September 21, 2017 the Canadian Company behind the Pacific Connector gas pipeline and LNG export terminal filed their application with the federal government, marking their third attempt to build a 235 mile pipeline through southern Oregon to ship fracked gas overseas.

You can help stand up to Jordan Cove by filing as an Intervenor on the project today!

Individuals, impacted landowners, conservation organizations and community groups can file as intervenors allowing them to submit comments and documents “on the record” to FERC. As an intervenor, you will also legal standing challenge decisions by FERC if you choose. Whether you are a landowner along the proposed route, or a concerned resident who loves hiking in the National Forests, or a business owner who is concerned about impacts, we all have a stake in ensuring the pipeline does not get built.

FERC works quickly and we have a short timeline to intervene. The deadline to file is October 26th, 2017. The good news is that is relatively easy to file and we have to put together step by step instructions that you can access online: http://www.rogueclimate.org/file_as_an_intervenor

In addition to the online instructions, we will be holding workshops along the pipeline route on the following days. Please join us and help spread the word!

Tuesday afternoon from 4-5:30 PM at the Medford library (205 S Central Ave, Medford, OR 97501), join us students as well as many other concerned local citizens for our Intervenor Workshop alongside Rogue Climate. This is a way for folks (not just students) to turn out and voice their grievances against the pipeline to the FERC (Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, a branch of the Environmental Protection Agency). This pipeline is set to go straight through four counties in Oregon (including Jackson County) and affect many landowners, as well as our rivers. If this personally affects you, come by and write a quick statement. We will compile the statements and send them to Governor Brown.

We invite you to an evening where we can all be among people who care as much as we do and share from our hearts.

As communities in southern Oregon continue to see the impacts of climate change and the effect that hotter summers and more extreme wildfires have on our jobs, health and quality of life, we are seeing the need to transition even faster to a more local and sustainable economy.

Across Oregon, community groups, city councils, businesses and more are starting conversations about a “Just Transition.” This term has a long history in the labor movement, and more recently has been used in the climate movement.

A just transition commits to a pathway for workers and communities that are currently employed in extractive industries or impacted by climate change to transition their jobs and communities to new and sustainable economies.

Join your neighbors at the Rogue Action Center to learn about the roots of the just transition movement and to engage in community conversations about what a just transition could look like in the Rogue Valley and throughout the state.

Next month, over 250 people across Oregon that represent communities most impacted by climate change will gather together for the first “Oregon Just Transition Assembly” to discuss a just transition for Oregon. It is important that we think through who could be impacted and what opportunities there are for our community in this transition so that our voices in southern Oregon are heard as our state continues making strides for a cleaner, sustainable environment.

We are starting the conversation here in southern Oregon to listen to our community about how we can improve our local economy and environment. We hope you can join us!

You’re invited to a special evening with social justice attorneys Chase Iron Eyes and Daniel Sheehan of the Lakota People's Law Project.

In spring of 2016, a movement was born at Standing Rock. When the Dakota Access pipeline (DAPL) was rerouted to the reservation, endangering its sacred water supply, Lakota elders asked allies to rally to their cause, symbolized by the phrase: “Mni Wiconi—Water is Life.” Hundreds of thousands of you answered their call.

Revelations of illegal paramilitary tactics employed by private security firms against Chase and other peaceful water protectors on the front lines underscore that our very democracy is at stake. This forum provides a unique opportunity to engage with two generational voices sharing first-hand accounts of this historic movement and the legal battles being waged in the Dakotas.

At this very special event, Chase will share his compelling narrative and timely perspective, and you’ll see a video presentation from Danny describing how the subjugation of indigenous peoples in the Dakotas is, in fact, an attack on our essential freedoms.

We invite you to join us for this exceptional evening. Together, let's continue to answer and advance the call to unite at this critical hour.

About Chase and Danny:Chase Iron Eyes is a citizen of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and the 2016 Democratic candidate for North Dakota’s congressional seat, Chase serves as lead counsel of the Lakota People’s Law Project and stood on the front lines of the fight against DAPL. Targeted by militarized private security in league with law enforcement, he now faces ten years in prison if convicted of a pair of felony charges falsely levied against him.

Daniel Sheehan is president of the Romero Institute and a renowned constitutional attorney. As chief defense counsel for Chase Iron Eyes, his legal strategy will expose the collusion between government, industry and militarized security to suppress Native populations and the right of all Americans to peacefully demonstrate.

This event is generously sponsored by Nomadics Tipi Makers. For more information email Jennifer@lakotalaw.org.

We are honored to screen this newly released film, telling the story of the#NODAPL Native-led resistance against the construction of the $3.7 billion Dakota Access Pipeline under the Missouri River at the Standing Rock Sioux Reservation in North Dakota.

Awake, A Dream From Standing Rock is a feature-length documentary directed by Academy Award nominated filmmaker and activist Josh Fox (Gasland, How To Let Go Of The World And Learn To Love Everything Climate Can’t Change), Academy Award nominated filmmaker James Spione (Incident In New Baghdad) and indigenous filmmaker and Digital Smoke Signals founder Myron Dewey.

From the Water Protectors at Standing Rock, we can learn a deep mode of engagement with the world. One that reminds us that we do not have to act alone as individuals, but rather, can find our strength as a collective of ecological beings in cahoots with the larger breathing world.

First, join us for the Planetary Dance movement ritual on Saturday, July 29, where we dedicate our art and our dance to benefit the waters of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers. Then, widen the frame of perception to include all water, and those who protect the most vulnerable parts of our world, both human and elemental.

Awake, A Dream from Standing Rock will deepen and inspire our sense of stewardship, and give context to our practices throughout this year’s Life.Art.Being festival.

More details and the official trailer can be viewed on the ticket page.Proceeds to benefit Indigenous Media Fund and Pipeline Fighers Fund.

Scoping hearings are when the public and state agencies get to look through the impact studies the company has submitted and suggest other necessary impacts we want FERC to consider. We need you to show up and gove FERC your comments!

But first, weneed FERC to give us an extension on the comment period and hearings. Our federal senators have already agreed to ask FERC for an extension on comments and more time to prep for hearings in ALL impacted counties. Now, we need you to wtite to FERC today and tell them to extend the timeline and have hearings in all 4 impacted counties!

-Let FERC know 30 days is NOT enough time for the public to read thousands of pages of reports to assess what's missing. The company hasn't even filed all the reports yet. We need at least a 90-120 day comment period like we have received in previous years.

- Hearings must be pushed back to allow for more public notice. 3 weeks notice isnt enough for a project of this size and interest! it is also important that hearings be held in ALL 4 impacted counties to maximize public participation. Brown must demand FERC hold a hearing in Jackson county!

Staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC or Commission) will prepare an environmental impact statement (EIS) that will discuss the impacts of the planned Jordan Cove LNG Terminal and Pacific Connector Pipeline Projects (collectively referred to as the Project).

The FERC is the lead federal agency for the preparation of the EIS. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Bureau of Land Management (BLM), Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), U.S. Forest Service (Forest Service), and the Bonneville Power Administration (BPA) are Cooperating Agencies and can adopt the EIS for their respective purposes and permitting actions.

TRUMP'S new FERC appointed Commission will go through the hoops of preparing an EIS in its to cover its tracks in their pre-approved decision-making process to determine that the Jordan Cove LNG Terminal is in the public interest and the Pacific Connector Pipeline is in the public convenience and necessity. Other federal agencies may adopt the EIS when granting their approval.

MAYBE You can make a difference by providing your comments. Your comments should focus on potential environmental impacts, reasonable alternatives, and measures to avoid or lessen environmental impacts. This scoping opportunity is for the entire Project, including actions and proposed plan amendments of the Cooperating Agencies listed above.

The Forest Service also seeks comments specific to the 2012 planning rule requirements at §§ 219.8 through 219.11 that are likely to be directly related to the proposed amendments. To ensure that your comments are timely and properly recorded, please send your comments so that the Commission receives them in Washington, DC on or before July 10, 2017.

Join Rogue Climate Siskiyou and the No Pipeline Campaign for the latest updates on the Jordan Cove LNG project and the fracked gas pipeline, and to take action together to prepare for upcoming public 'scoping' meetings at the end of June along the proposed pipeline route.

“Scoping” is the process where the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) decides what is included in the environmental impact statement and what issues to focus on. The scoping period is when the public and state agencies get to look through the impact studies the company has submitted and suggest other necessary impacts we want FERC to consider.

Come to learn more, and join with other community members to stop the pipeline!

Join Rogue Climate and the No Pipeline Campaign for the latest updates on the Jordan Cove LNG project and the fracked gas pipeline, and to take action to prepare for upcoming public 'scoping' meetings that have just been scheduled for the end of June.

We Walk and Bike to Standing Rock.Very simple. This happened in 1960 during nuclear protest. The walk went from SF TO VERMONT. It ended up at white House Lawn. Met by police with armor. But we must stand against this oppression. I need 1000s of people from all 50 states. Please share and reproduce my event Across United States. It'll take a month at least. Schedule. I'm planning on Oregon California and Washington joining in. We meet in Denver to group up.

A large anti-nuclear demonstration was held on May 6, 1979, in Washington D.C., when 125,000 people including the Governor of California, attended a march and rally against nuclear power. In New York City on September 23, 1979, almost 200,000 people attended a protest against nuclear power. Anti-nuclear power protests preceded the shutdown of the Shoreham, Yankee Rowe, Millstone I, Rancho Seco, Maine Yankee, and about a dozen other nuclear power plants.

The Flood never came to Standing Rock, so let's bring the Flood to the United Nations.

From April 24th to May 5th the United Nations in New York City is holding the Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues, also known as PFII. Typically, these forums lack Native American representation, and often have Non-Natives speaking on behalf of Natives and their issues. This ends now.

For two weeks, we need to show New York, The UN, and the world that Indigenous People are here, and can speak for themselves.

The world will not forget what happened at Standing Rock. The world will no longer ignore the conditions on reservations, and the issues effecting indigenous people around the globe. 3/4 of the world's population are indigenous, and it's time they stop forgetting that.

There are multiple levels of events within this forum, some more exclusive than others. We want to come out in full force at every level. From top to bottom. From panels at the UN headquarters to flash mob round dances in Time Square, we are going to Flood New York City.

Whether you are registered for the forum or not, we are asking for all indigenous people and allies to come to New York City and show your support. As the strongest of warriors take the United Nations to speak, they will have the support of their brothers and sisters outside, praying, singing, marching and standing in solidarity.

Thousands came to Standing Rock. Thousands came to DC. And we can do the same in New York City.

We are planning a plethora of events, from demonstrations, to speaking engagements, to gatherings and dances and celebrations. For two weeks, let's make New York City our new home.

More details to come as this develops and grows.

The most important thing you can do to help is to show up. We need as many people as possible to attend this open house and voice their opposition to the Jordan Cove LNG Pipeline.

Jordan Cove LNG and Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline will hold open houses as part of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) pre-filing process (Docket No. PF17-4) to provide the public with opportunities to learn about the Project and interact with company and FERC representatives.

All Open House Dates have been changed:

All open houses will take place from 4pm-8pm at the same locations as before:

Representatives of the Jordan Cove gas export project and Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) are coming to Klamath Falls on Friday March 24th, to talk about the proposed fracked gas export terminal and 230-mile Pacific Connector pipeline they want to put under the Klamath River. Come join us in telling Jordan Cove and public officials that we don’t want their pipeline!

***UPDATE: The Ramada Inn in Medford canceled the original reservations for both the #AltJordanCoveOpenHouse and the actual Jordan Cove Open House. The new location for the Open House is the Medford Public Library (205 S Central Ave, Medford)* and will take place at the same date and time -- 4pm - 8pm on Thursday, March 23***

On March 23, Veresen, the company proposing the Pacific Connector Pipeline, is holding a required Open House in Medford. We are holding rally outside of the open house starting at 4pm, with speakers starting at 5:15pm.

We know that Veresen will use the Open House to try to assure our community that the project is safe, will create jobs, will help the climate, lower our gas bills, and not use eminent domain. After 10 years of fighting this pipeline, we know this is far from the truth. Outside of the #JordanCoveOpenHouse, we will have the real facts, and ways to get involved to stop the pipeline.

Bring your friends and family, and together, we will show Veresen that our opposition to this project is growing -- in resources, commitment, and people.

Thank you all for your flexibliity and commitment as Jordan Cove has changed the date / time / and location.
